DOI: 10.1016/j.brs.2021.05.016
Abstract: BACKGROUND Seizure duration has long been measured as a potential marker of ECT treatment efficacy, with concern that short seizures may be clinically ineffective. Relatively small studies have documented a trend towards shorter seizures during… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/08039488.2022.2107237
Abstract: Abstract Objective Physiological parameters that predict electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) effectiveness may reflect propagation of the induced epileptic seizure. As an indication of seizure propagation to the diencephalon, we here examined the correlation between prolactin increase… read more here.
